So what'd you guys have for dinner?

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

It's my mom's birthday tonight, so we had some Dom Perigon before heading to the restaurant.

Then for dinner I had Mussels Fra Diavolo as an appetizer then some amazing linguine with white clam sauce & an escarole side for dinner. There were a couple bottles of some 2000 Chianti (I forget the exact name) with dinner. I'm so stuffed now.

Incidentally, the restaurant we ate at is owned by Joe Pesci's cousin and now I'm watching Good Fellas on TBS. It's the "you think I'm funny" scene right now.

1. Honestly?

McDonald's.

:hide:

I know, I know...but I'm stuck at work until 9 and I had a very limited amount of time to grab dinner.

[querelle]

2. Two Hot Dogs & Potato Salad

What can I say? I'm tired and didn't feel like making anything elaborate tonight. Off to bed soon with a good book.

[KamaAina]

3. Dinner? It's 3:30 in the afternoon, fer Pete's sake!

oh right, not back East. :dunce:

My goodness. I had saved up a bag of Zippy's frozen chili (a local delicacy) for tonight, as tomorrow is Statehood Day out here, but it couldn't possibly compare to what sounds like the kind of Italian you'd get at the place down the street from Mom's weekend place in NJ.

4. Punjabi eggplant over rice. nt

[_testify_]

That dish comes from Itri, the little village that my grandfather came from! Escarole, huh? You must be in the Northeast.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

9. North Jersey to be exact.

I feel sorry for people that think Italian is the Olive Garden.

[_testify_]

Olive Garden, home of Bologna Alfredo.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

[TheFriendlyAnarchist]

[sendero]

14. Weiner schnitzel..

... made with veal. Sesame-oil noodles. Zuchini-onion-mushroom medley. I cooked the veal, wifey cooked the rest :)

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

16. I will restrain myself from my veal diatribe.

If you give up any meat though, it should really be veal.

[sendero]

20. We eat it..

... about once a year. My wife doesnt' eat it at all, she's had to go vegan due to coronary artery disease (she's only mid 40s but diabetic).

[LadyoftheRabbits]

17. Some salmon and bread...

Rather good, actually. :9

[bigwillq]

19. Chicken Fingers BLT

at TGIFridays. Side of fries and an Orange soda.

[GOPisEvil]

22. Chicken curry over jasmine rice.

Red curry paste is powerful stuff. :nuke:

[grannylib]

23. We had patty melts and fresh veggies (broccoli, carrots, cauliflower,

tomatoes) and some fresh fruit (nectarines and REALLY fat juicy red grapes)

It was SO yummy; I had a migraine all day yesterday and couldn't keep anything but popsicles down, and felt too woozy still to eat much until I got home today, so I was REALLY hungry...

[AlienGirl]

24. Roasted-vegetable and zucchini pizza (no cheese)

[MiniMandaRuth]

25. Authentic Dirty Rice with biscuits.

I made it. It was good.

[Arugula Latte]

26. Grilled garlicky shrimp, pasta w/parmesan, green beans, chardonnay.

:9

[mtowngman]

28. Cheeseburger at Pickels in Atlantic City

It's a deli/restaurant in Bally's.

[Nicole]

29. Nothing as good as what you had!

I had a bacon cheeseburger.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

31. It's a rare treat.

Usually I just eat a veggie burger or something.

[Nicole]

33. All the more enjoyable.

I'm sure. :)

[BreweryYardRat]

30. Lentil soup and cookies n' cream ice cream.

Lower jaw's still in pretty bad shape.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

32. Dinner tonight.......I went to my usual Thursday Farmer's Mkt...

And got lots of fresh veggies.......

So we had corn on the cob......

And baconburgers with tomato, lettuce and sharp cheddar melted over....

On toasted sourdough English muffins!

Damn, it was soooooo good! :9

[Ellen Forradalom]

34. I made jambalaya with rice and cornbread

With salad and a Syrah to drink.

[NMMNG]

35. I had an Italian Veggie Brat

along with Near East Radiatore Pasta with Basil and Herbs (with fresh tomatoes added), and some green beans.

[fizzgig]

36. cheap red wine

and it was tasty

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

38. I've had that for dinner many a time.

Three Buck Chuck ain't bad.

[Floogeldy]

37. Fuck that.

Can't we talk about you instead? ;)

[Robeson]

39. Veggie Pizza, it was great. Or as Rachael Ray would say....

...Yummo!...

[Luna_Chick]

40. Graham crackers and milk

And a Guinness a little later. Didn't feel like cooking, greatly lacking in inspiration.

I can only imagine what weird dreams I'll have tonight.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

41. That sounds like a pretty normal dinner to me.

I don't eat real meals much.

[Chan790]

42. Chili Mac

Homemade vegetarian chili topped with sauteed onions, silken tofu "sour cream", soy "cheddar", and mixed beans served over pasta.

It's an old favorite of mine. I wanted to try to adapt it to see if it would retain its' charm, gone vegan. It didn't quite work. It just didn't come together as I'd hoped. The "cheese" just wouldn't melt and the silken tofu was wrong for the dish, but that can be left out. It was okay, but not good.

[u4ic]

44. Homemade borsch

with lots of veggies, not just beet borsch. :puke: to that

Rice crackers and goat cheddar. Blueberry yoghurt for dessert. :-)

[Iniquitous Bunny]

45. We went out to an Indian restaurant.

:9

[DrDan]

46. stuffed peppers

mmmmmm mmmmmm

[NewWaveChick1981]

47. A taco salad.

:9 I didn't eat the shell bowl, though. :(

Your dinner sounds fabulous, haruka! :)

[Katina]

48. Happy Birthday to your mom
